As an industrial designer and marketer, I’m passionate about creating user-centered design solutions for both physical and digital products, always emphasizing visually engaging outcomes and accessibility.
With over 15 years of experience across Europe and America, I’ve thrived in diverse cultural environments, adapting to various platforms and software while integrating into different company cultures.
My guiding philosophy is simple: empathy comes first, and I apply this approach to everything I do. I believe great design prioritizes understanding the needs and emotions of users; thus, it doesn’t just look good, it solves real problems. By integrating AI tools, research, prototyping, and testing, I design user-centric products that enhance engagement while aligning with business objectives.
Let’s create something amazing together!
